SGA5263Z SGA5263ZDC to 4500MHz, Silicon Germanium Cascadable Gain Block DC to 4500MHz, Silicon Germanium Cascadable Gain Block Package: SOT-363 Product Description Features The SGA5263Z is a high performance SiGe HBT MMIC Amplifier. A Darlington configuration featuring one-micron emitters provides high FT and excellent thermal performance. The heterojunction increases breakdown voltage and minimizes leakage current between junctions. Cancellation of emitter junction non-linearities results in higher suppression of intermodulation products. Only two DC-blocking capacitors, a bias resistor, and an optional RF choke are required for operation. DC to 4500MHz Operation Single Voltage Supply Low Current Draw: 60mA at 3.4V Typ.

For best performance use via holes as close to ground leads as possible to reduce lead inductance. RF input pin. This pin requires the use of an external DC blocking capacitor chosen for the frequency of operation. RF output and bias pin. Bias should be supplied to this pin through an external series resistor and RF choke inductor. Because DC biasing is present on this pin, a DC-blocking capacitor should be used in most applications. (See application schematic.) The supply side of this bias network should be well bypassed. SOT-363 PCB Pad Layout Dimensions in inches [millimeters] RF OUT RF IN Notes: 1.
